9702Potential difference and power

The potential difference across a resistor is 12 V. The current in the resistor is 2.0 A. A charge of 4.0 C passes through the resistor. What is the energy transferred in the resistor and the time taken for the charge to pass through the resistor?

  1. Aenergy / J: 3.0, time / s: 2.0
  2. Benergy / J: 3.0, time / s: 8.0
  3. Cenergy / J: 48, time / s: 2.0
  4. Denergy / J: 48, time / s: 8.0
